I love you.

This is a very late reply but the answer is no. No more Doom 3 modding. Adding those features would begin to add incompatibilities as well...

Thank you guest!

Great work so far.

Nice work Arl :)

Great! Glad it works for you now :)

Thanks I'll check it out.

Well I just directly tested the download from here and had no issues.

Could you post some system specs? Also, try these cvars settings:

seta image_preload "1"
seta image_roundDown "1"
seta image_downsize "0"
seta image_useCompression "0"
seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "0"

Not sure if that will help but if doesn't then lastly try this:

If you can, extract all the contents of the mod and remove the pak_phrozo_particles2.pk4. Then remove or delete each .prt file from the particle folder until the problem goes away. Do this with the .fx files as well.

If you can find the problem file(s) I can investigate what might be causing issues for you.

Thanks

Hmm, that's odd. Have you tried this with just my mod by itself. If you have, does this happen with all maps? Does this happen when you directly load a level with the map command?

Is the game freezing, crashing, or going back to main menu? There is a possibility that the new particles will break old saves but I'll have to investigate this.

Thanks.

Indeed, they are unfortunately the same effects used on each impact but it was the only way to keep the mod compatible without having to do heavier modification. Phrozo Mod 2.0 already has a lot more randomness and variation. Maybe if people really like this mod I might add the support required, which would mean modified Sikkmod 1.2 game code.

Thanks for the compliment. I'll ask the authors of those mods if they are interested in including any of these particles.

Sorry for the late replay but I now have a mod for Sikkmod 1.2 if you are still interested.

Nice work on the alpha shotgun!

Congratulation on the work you are doing!

Awesome! Thanks for using some of my stuff. You've done an awesome job with the mod.

I'll see what I can do about making a pure gameplay version. I can't guarantee anything at the moment because of work but I'll try.

I have always compiled the Doom 3 SDK in Visual C++ 2008 Express, but it should compile in Visual Studio 2010 as well. You will get a lot of warnings but you can set them to be ignored. As for later versions like 2013/Code, I assume it should compile but I haven't tested it.

Can you post the compiler errors you are getting?

Sorry, only have a Windows build. The source code is included though.

Nice! Let me know if you need any assistance.

I'd love to export some of my FX to Quake 4 but I don't think it is feasible nor do I think I'll ever have the time. Currently I need to start working on tools and support for Doom 3. There are some much needed script and particle tutorials that need to be made, and I've been asked on trying to get some real IDE/intellisense support for DoomScript which it desperately needs.

Thanks, you too :)

The trite explode/suicide particles will work just fine in Doom 3, but the wound particles will not work properly because of how differently particles are used for impact effects. Those green bleed effects are specifically defined in phrozo_projectiles_base.def in the def folder and I had to code support for that, so sorry about that :(

I might for ROE. It shouldn't be too much work porting over the code and a few other things. I'll probably include new stuff too if I do.

And thanks! :)

It's out! Hope you enjoy it.

It's done. There are just a few last minute things I need to do. I should have it uploaded tonight or tomorrow. I'll keep you posted

Got to play this online with a few peeps and enjoyed myself. Be sure to check it out. Nice video by the way.

Still down? Darn...

Well, that's a different game. New particle effects for Quake 4? Possibly, if time permits.

Ha, figures. The mod was made for vanilla Doom, but since Sikkmod is so popular I'll consider making a version specific to it.

Hi there. Sorry it has been a long time since I've logged on here or done any modding. The blood particle effects are weapon defined, so you'll have to edit each weapon "def" file to choose which particle effect to use when you wound an enemy. You'll find it under "smoke_wound_flesh".

As for the particle effect themselves, all wound effects are in "Phrozo_blood.prt" and in the particle editor (type "editparticles" in the console) all my particles are listed with the beginning prefix "Phrozo_". The particle you are probably talking about is "Phrozo_wound".

Removing some of the stages or reducing the particle count will help with performance. Good luck.

Lastly, thank you for appreciating my mod. Performance was a concern for my mod and I wish it was more optimized. Someday when I work on 1.4 I will hopefully fix some of those issues.

Hey there friend.

I'd really like to try your mod out but for some reason I can't get it to run. Maybe after I reformat I can get this and the ati catalyst thing sorted out. Thanks btw for including part of my mod in your mod.

I hope you enjoy this mod :)
